What is the purpose of WEBCAST in Blue Iris?

[adamfarber]

Hi all, I have the latest version 4 of Blue Iris and under BLUE IRIS STATUS under the CAMERA tab I see under the WEBCAST section several cameras showing numbers but I am not WEBCASTING, do I need WEBCAST enabled, in other works what exactly does this do? Thanks, pic attached. Adam

you are webcasting if you view BI via the webserver or mobile app...see help file

OK, that makes sense, I triggered it using the mobile app. Thanks Fenderman, you are OK!! Adam
